Bad weather impacts Turkish flights

Thu, 19 Feb 2015

Turkish Airlines has cancelled at least 80 flights today, following a severe snowstorm that temporarily closed Instanbul Ataturk Airport yesterday. “Turkish Airlines offers refund, change and cancellation possibilities to its passengers who have bookings on the flights from/to İstanbul on February 18 and 19 and who have ticketed on or before February 18,” the airline said. Provided that tickets must be revalidated before or on February 23, rebooking and rerouting will be made without any charge. Validity of tickets can be extended until March 5 without any fare difference or penalty, however requests will be made according to original fare rules.

Travellers are advised to check their flight schedules before going to the airport.
